I should mention (continues the correspondent) that I have no personal grudga against the Argentine Repub lic, which 1 have visited twice on temporary business, each time with successful results.

When I arrived at Buenos Ayres: 100s after Now Year's Day, I was surprised to find in ths interval of about two years since my fist ac- quaintance with the place little gr do serious attempt had been made by the Government to improve the city's or tba, country's reputation. In the city the "principal change noticeable was in the leading club having ceased to ad- mit to its membership, anyone and everyone who could afford to pay the subscription. There is still no more useful busting ground in the whole world for the European or Ame- rican detective desirous of locating a fugitive from Justice. But, as the Argention Govern ment adheres to its policy of unrestricted hos pitality in refusing, except in very extraordin- ary cases, to extradite criminals who are not proved to have committed murder, the man who is satitled to a term of penal servitude in any other country, has little to fear unless the possibility of being enticed, over the frontier, "or of being kidnapped;"

During last March the proprietor of a certain Buenos Ayres restaurant was treating bis customers occasionally, after midnight, to cinematograph pictures of a flag- raatly improper order.
